However, unlike reading, I do enjoy writing. As stated, I am working on a novel that I feel is very new and original. So hopefully, that turns out well. I write poetry a lot to help me become a better writer as well. The reason I write is less about expressing my emotion as opposed to sharing ideas and getting my point across. Maybe that is emotion, but who really knows. I also love to compete when writing, so that is always fun.
I am influenced by two things as a writer. My life. Which has been very odd and a lot of very strange things have happened to me. I once found a suitcase full of money, A bank robber/murder once threatened me and my family so I needed a bodyguard from the FBI, I have lived with my girlfriend since she was 16, I skipped 11th grade and graduated high school when I was 17, and I have been an active member in the hip hop community. Which brings me to my second influence, hip hop. Hip hop as a culture is incredible and amazing. It is all about poetry, turntablism, graffiti, dancing, etc. The hip hop I have come to love is very underground and not heard on the radio. It is very respectful, intelligent, and essentially poetry.
I'm trying to break this writer's cramp, massage my hand and daydream
Out the window innuendo, watch the water find it's path down the glass
It seems, erratic direction, it's only perfection
Rest my head inside my hands, pace back and forth inside my mind
I wish sometimes I wouldn't reminisce so much
such things, tend to make one reflect and dissect situations to an extreme
Hard now to redeem what was there before
No more gone are those days and ways have parted
Gone from feeling solid trust to outsmarted
Anyway, I'm now moving on to a distance far from yesterday
It's best this way
I feel as though I've missed this moment of truth
Outcome uneventful. I've lost the ability to feel sentimental
I can stare at a puddle and see a million places I love
That was a verse from a rapper who goes by the name of Alias.
Right now, my life is very busy. I live with a girl and I am attending college to become a therapist. I read a lot of textbooks and books concerning psychology to teach myself as my goal in life is to become one of the top therapist and psychoanalysis. And as stated before, I am working on a novel that will be very dark and gritty.
So hello folks.
